I have been working on this program which inserts an XML file into a MYSQL database. I'm new to the whole .jar idea by inserting packages. Im having an issue with parse(), select(), and children(). Can someone inform me how I could fix this issue? Here is my stack trace and my program below:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems:
The method select(String) is undefined for the type Document
The method children() is undefined for the type Element
The method children() is undefined for the type Element
The method children() is undefined for the type Element
